Oceania Cruises has revealed its most ambitious elevation initiative to date with the stem-to-stern overhauls of Riviera and Marina.
After their debuts in December 2022 and November 2023, it means Oceania will for the first time field a fleet of brand-new or better-than-new ships.
“We continue to raise the bar and elevate the guest experience at every opportunity,” said Howard Sherman, Oceania’s president.
“Whether it’s innovative new culinary concepts, immersive new destination experiences, or presenting our guests with ships that are not just better, but better than new, Oceania Cruises sets the standard by which others are judged.”
The reimagination of Riviera and Marina, pictured above, includes:
- Floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall all-new suites and staterooms with custom-crafted furnishings, exotic stone, and polished wood finishes.
- Elegantly re-styled lounges and tony bars
- Even grander Grand Dining Room with plush new carpets and lustrous, leather-covered armchairs
Riviera will be first to be overhauled and will debut on 7 December on a 16-day Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Caribbean cruise from Rome to Miami. Then follows her popular 7- to 14-day Caribbean sailings from Miami to the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America for one final season before returning to Europe in late March 2023
Marina will debut on 13 November, 2023, on a 7-day cruise from Barcelona to Lisbon. From Lisbon, Marina head to Miami to kick off her annual South America season on 3 December.
